Roost it far

1 point! No thanks, 40plus with the Melbourne chant ringing around the ground

Can we please not have threads about him

Maybe stop at Forward? :)

No, Tomlinson will play on the resting ruck until the game is on hand then be subbed out for a mid who’ll help pile on the last quarter goals. May meanwhile will keep Curnow to a couple.

May, has done well the last 2 outings and is our best big defender

Agreed

JJ replacement for Brayshaw is obvious. Tomlinson replaces Hibberd and takes the testing ruck….solid. Turner…..not sure what his gig is!

19 scoring shots

Sounds like Tomlinson, Turner and JJ are coming in. I think the club is trusting the best ruckman of the last 6 years to take in the ruck job by himself. King makes a good point on 360 that Gawn needs to tuck inside 50 to create better stoppages.

Maynard is no more culpable of the end of Brayshaw’s career than those that caused his other concussions. This is the problem, the AFL are still behind in protecting the head of its employees.

I think JJ covers Brayshaw almost like for like just 80% of true value, which is fine.

I think pick 22 for Grundy is fair. I don't think GC will swap pick 4 for those NQR picks. Holding clubs over a barrel never works out into the future. Just look at Peter Bell.

You just hang onto it forever Sue, I’m sure that will work wonders.

I understand that this was a big event and a lot of emotion carried with the loss on Thursday but it’s time to move on. We’ve got a big game on Friday then we’re off to the Gabba. Time to let go the past and prime ourselves with some venom for Carlton and Brisbane cause those fkersuc will be waiting on GF day and we need to be ready.

Can someone post the Kozzie ssmother

It’s good

Would you trade him for a Oscar Allen and pick 1?

They better come out switched on…..there’s no excuses……we’ve used them all up this week.

You do Big Fella and you’re my go to for fun facts.

Deep down he knows we’re a chance but he’s been hurt so many times he can’t show that to this cruel and unforgiving world. His heart, damaged through years of thrashings can’t bare sharing what he really feels anymore. Because inside what he feels is a roar so loud he’s not sure he can contain it. A roar so powerful as to help inspire his team to a victory. At the 15 minute mark of the 3rd quarter look high up in the stands on the East side, for that roar will finally be unleashed and the game will be won. Now get this man a ticket!

Had we won that flag we would have won 6 on the trot. We were strong favourites and Collingwood beat us up, literally. We lost. It also has absolutely no bearing on Thursdays game but whatever

He’s carrying a lot right now. He’s got help. Time to bat up and get the job done

You remain the Lone Wolf and I’d be proud of such a moniker

Spot on Big Fella. The players and the coaches have experience. Do we have the resolve, the inner fortitude and the mental strength to hit these 2 games at full tilt from the first bounce? Can we execute under extreme pressure because if we can we are good enough to do this. Watching Maynard cop his first Viney hit in 3 weeks will be a life affirming moment.

We need the first goal, preferably 2, it activates our crowd and quiet end their’s. If we’re 3 goals down inside 10 minutes god help us
